It's not 'Send', it's the 'Culture Cup', stupid.

Thread split! I feel a whole lot better!

I did know it at one point.

6. Puerto Rico? Brazil?

6 Is Mexico

9 - William Shatner

yes, I'm kicking myself after watching Mega Cities program last week on Mexico City... where they mentioned this fact.

William Shatner?

No, question 6.

I knew it was William Shatner, but couldn't remember because I'm old.

Lest we forget

Morning Great Britainers

Just keeping the dream alive whilst Shah is tied up with AA.

Alas poor Shah, we knew him well.
He seems to have joined Tino in that great Culture Cup in the ether(net).

I'm worried that he's pinned down by a fork lift and his mobile phone battery has gone dead.

Or he's trapped in one of those little huts by the entrance/exit barriers.

Morning, gents.

Hey ho Ricko!
How's your day been thus far?

There are 33 working days until Xmas, including today. We need 14.45 posts per day, on average, to achieve thread split.

The Duchess of Cambridge is about to visit my workplace, must have an appointment about avoiding taxes. I doubt she'll come down to the basement which is a shame as I could give her a brand new keyboard and mouse.

Has she put in the proper requisition form?

If I were you I'd join the end of the queue of hand shakers upstairs and just stand there with your best Nosferatu face... unlike Mr Bean... and give her a warm smile.

I just had a giant crap which is annoying as I could've unleashed it as she entered the building had I remembered she was coming.

I once saw The Queen, although I never saw Queen.

I once said hello to Stephen Merchant on the tube and then realised that I know him from tv and not real life. He didn't say hello back which was a bit hurtful.

I once splashed a puddle of water towards the Queen and she gave me a half smile. Back in the days when security was less pronounced.

Treason!

Hey TLD, so far so busy hence the fleeting visit, hope all is well with you.

Just read that 1 in 52 people in Luton are homeless, I hope Shah's part of the 51.

Statistically, that means one of his wives is homeless.

Fist.

The site has been down for the morning stint for me.

Yes, the outage could be costly in terms of the thread split Christmas deadline.

Being an opportunist, I took advantage to be fist.

And last.

Yep, and last.

Anyone could rock up on here at midday and be fist.

And possibly last...

Not today though.

Anyone got a quiz at hand?

1 yes

1 I meant 'no'

Greetings Shah. Have you whipped your boy into shape?

Correct

A thousand welcomes Shah... when only one will do.

Morning Jules, Galted and TLD he did have a couple of smartly dressed barry moments but I got him all ship shape then he failed the secondary screening so my former workplace was left without a trained and qualified guard when we both left on Friday.

So you've left you job?

Yes...they said they wanted to keep the same terms and conditions so I gave them two weeks notice, trained my replacement and left

Was the secondary screening Gone With the Wind?

So you have officially left now?

Yup. Been off a week reading a few books getting high and visiting family. Not a bad week at all.

I am not John Hillerman.

I don't know who John Hllerman is so I can't rule out that I'm not him.

18 posts today. Above the average needed to reach thread split by Christmas. Well done to everyone involved.

I'll handle this one - he was Higgins in Magnum.  You may have been him although I'd imagine the chances are fairly low - if you stop posting altogether within the next day or two then perhaps you were him.

Perhaps I should add that if anyone has any questions relating to 80s TV shows feel free to ask me as I have watched several and would perhaps know the answer.
